Fujifilm X-T3 vs Olympus 1s Sensor Comparison

As you can see, both cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-T3 having a larger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF easier and the Fujifilm X-T3 will render greater detail with its extra 14 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm X-T3 will have a benefit in sensor innovation.
